BOOT AND SHOE CLEANING STAND.
Specification of Letters Patent.
Patented May 5, 1908.
Application filed November 9, 1906. Serial No. 342,741.
T all whom it may concern:
Be it known that I, ALBERT F. BIGFORD, a citizen of the United States of America, and a resident of the town of Dunlap, in the county of King and State of Washington, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Boot and Shoe Cleaning Stands, of which the following is a specification.
My invention has for its primary object the provision of a device of the above type which will be efficient in operation, and further, embracing but few parts which can be readily separated to make the structure more compact for transportation.
' A further object is to provide shoe rests of novel construction.
Other objects will be set forth as the description progresses and those features of construction in which the invention resides, succinctly defined in the appended claims.
Referring now to the accompanying drawings in which like numerals of reference indicate like parts throughout the several views: Figure 1 is a view in perspective of my invention. Fig. 2 is a vertical cross sectional view of the stand. 3 is a fragmentary view in perspective of the stand brackets secured thereto. Fig. 4 is an end view of one of the brackets. Figs. 5 and 6 are fragmentary views of the stand and illustrating shoes thereon to be polished, the latter view illustrating by broken lines the relative positions of both large and small shoes on the stand, and Fig. 7 is a view in perspective of the lower shoe rest.
Reference numeral 1 indicates a hollow stand having its upper portion open and serving as a shoe rest, indicated at 1 and below the upper edge of this shoe rest and within the same I provide another shoe rest, as 2,
the latter resting on a shoulder 3 and being removable. Shoe rest 1 being of open formation, opposite edge portions are provided between which a portion of the sole of the shoe to be polished can be pressed, as illustrated in 6, and the shoe therefore held firmly during the polishing operation.
In Fig. 6 the large shoe is positioned to have its rear and instep portions polished.
' In polishing the forward portion of the shoe,
said shoe is moved forward until the heel enside of the rest. Then by a slight pressure of the foot, that portion of the shoe sole engaging the forward portion of the T rest can be forced and held firmly against the curved inner face thereof. When the shoe with one of the is in this position, cloth 4 is engaged with rollers 5 and passed over the shoe as illustrated in Fig. 5, and the cloth then reciprocated.
In providing shoe rest 2, the device is adapted for the polishing of small shoes, which in operation are arranged as shown in Fig. 6 with the heel engaged on said rest. By this construction, a small shoe while being firmly held on the rest can be moved back and forth thereon to project the forward portion of the shoe more or less into the field of operation of the polishing cloth.
The rollers or guides are mounted for rotation on arms or rods 6 which are adjustably supported in brackets 7. Brackets 7 are re movably secured at diametrically opposite points to the sides of stand 1 by suitable keepers 8, said brackets being provided with headed studs 9 which are passed through the wall of the stand and a suitable reinforcing plate 10, then through the slot 8 of keeper 8 whereupon keeper 8 is given a quarter turn (see Fig. 3). Each bracket is also provided with a plurality of steadying lugs as 11.
One of the arms of each bracket, referably the rear one, is formed with a plura lity of apertures 12 so that by passing the arms 6 through one or the other thereof, the guides can be brought closer together or vice'versa.
By providing a ollow stand, the various appliances for cleaning and polishing boots and shoes and the guides 5 with their supporting arms and removable brackets can be accommodated therein. A cover 14 is seated in the upper portion of the stand when the device is not in use.
Having thus described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Let ters Patent of the United States of America, 1s:
1. In a device of the type set forth, a stand provided at its upper portion with a shoe rest having spaced portions between which the sole of a shoe to be polished can be ressed, thefeby enabling the shoe to be firm y held, am 5 forwardly thereof, said guides having their rear portions secured to said stand at opposite sides thereof, as specified.
2. In a device of the type set forth, a stand having a hollow upper portion formed on its interior below its upper edge with a shoulder, a shoe rest removably arranged in said stand on the said shoulder thereof, and guides for a polishing cloth secured to the opposite sides of said stand and projecting forwardly thereof. 3. In adevice of the type set forth, a stand, the upper portion of said stand being hollow, brackets having lugs projecting through the wall of the upper portion of said stand, keepers engaged with the inner end portions of the lugs of said brackets, and spaced guides for a polishing cloth secured in said brackets and projecting forwardly of said stand.
4. A device of the type set forth comprising a stand, brackets removably secured to the sides of said stand below the top thereof,
arms mounted in said brackets, and rollers mounted for rotation on said arms.
5. A device of the type set forth comprisguides for a polishing cloth projecting ing a stand, brackets secured to said stand,
arms adjustab'ly mounted in said brackets, and rollers on said arms.
6. A device of the type set forth comprising a stand, brackets secured to the sidesi thereof at opposite points, said brackets be:, ing formed with outwardly projecting spaced 235 apart arms, and roller supporting arms removably supported in said brackets, said bracket arms having apertures through which the roller supporting arms project, and one arm of each bracket having a plurality of apertures through any one of which said 'roller supporting arms can be passed to adjust the same toward or from one another.
Signed at Seattle, l/Vashington, this 27th day of October 1906.
